Ever since actor-producer Sohum Shah officially teamed up with veteran producer Dr. Jayantilal Gada’s Pen Studios, fans have been eagerly waiting for the release of ‘Tumbbad 2’. Now, as the project moves forward, an exciting casting update has surfaced.
‘Tumbbad 2’ continues the legacy of a cult hit
Since its release in 2018, ‘Tumbbad’ has become a cult hit among movie lovers. The film’s re-release in 2024 was a big success, and now the team is gearing up to start work on the sequel soon. As excitement builds, reports suggest that a well-known actor might play the villain this time, making the project even more interesting.
‘Tumbbad 2’ may feature a powerful antagonist
According to Hindustan Times, a powerful antagonist is central to the narrative of ‘Tumbbad 2’. The team is keen on elevating the sequel with a layered and formidable negative lead. Akshaye Khanna and Nawazuddin Siddiqui are two names currently being discussed. Their ability to portray morally complex, unpredictable characters makes them compelling choices for the world of ‘Tumbbad’. The makers’ idea is to introduce an antagonist who isn’t just menacing but deeply layered, someone who can stand toe-to-toe with Sohum’s character in terms of intensity and depth.
